Today at a Glance

Metric	Value
🤖 Total Runs	201 (172 ✅ / 29 ❌)
🎯 Success Rate	85.6%
🔗 GitHub REST API Calls	79,196 (core quota consumed — includes reads, writes, and all GitHub API operations)
📝 Safe-Output Writes	254 (issues + PRs + comments + discussions created by safe-output tools)
⏱ Avg Duration	585.2s (p95: 1146.0s)

🔗 GitHub API Calls Trend (90 days)

Total REST API consumption is trending up modestly, at 79.2K today versus a 7-day rolling average in the 70–100K band. The dominant feature of the window remains the 2026-06-15 spike (~575K) — roughly 7× a normal day — which still pulls the rolling average upward weeks later. Outside that anomaly, daily volume oscillates between ~15K and ~185K with no runaway growth.

---

🔗 GitHub API Calls by Workflow Trend (30 days)

The heaviest consumers over the last 30 days are consistently the PR- and skills-review workflows — PR Code Quality Reviewer, Test Quality Sentinel, Impeccable/Matt Pocock Skills Reviewer, and Design Decision Gate. These review agents run per-PR and per-skill, so their aggregate quota scales directly with repository activity rather than any single expensive run.

---

🔗 GitHub REST API Calls Heatmap (90 days)

The heatmap shows consumption concentrated on weekdays, tracking PR and CI activity, with lighter weekend cells. The single darkest cell corresponds to the mid-June anomaly; no other day approaches it, indicating that spike was an isolated event rather than a recurring weekly pattern.

---

🍩 Top API Burners (24h)

Consumption is moderately concentrated: the top 5 workflows account for ~61% of all REST API quota used today, and the single largest — PR Code Quality Reviewer (15.1%) — is a review agent, not a batch job. With 97 distinct workflows sharing the remaining ~39%, there is no single point of runaway consumption, but the review cluster is worth watching if PR volume grows.

---

🔗 GitHub REST API Consumption by Workflow (last 24h)

The top consumer, PR Code Quality Reviewer, used 11,930 calls across 9 runs (~1.3K/run) — comfortably below the 15,000/hr limit with ~3,070 headroom, and spread across the day rather than concentrated in a single hour. No workflow breached or approached the hourly ceiling. The clearest optimisation target is the review-agent cluster: caching repeated contents/pulls reads or batching review-comment writes would trim the largest recurring line items.
